One of the more popular organizational apps, Remember the Milk brings your to-do list to life and uses a clean interface to make scheduling as easy as possible. You can sync it with many different products such as Microsoft Outlook, Gmail, Google Calendar, Siri, and Twitter.

Easily the most stylish Android app in this list, Any.DO has a handy feature in which you shake the screen to move a task to the “completed” list. Other features such as voice search helps make organizing tasks a breeze.

With a no-fuss interface that keeps everything to the point, Clear is the only to-do app that is primarily controlled by gestures. The price tag of $1.99 might make you a little hesitant to download—especially since the majority of apps here are free—but what you get is an app that takes away the hassle associated with lists. Plus, it’s well designed—using this app is certainly more enjoyable than other rival products.

Boasting a bright and cheerful interface, Astrid is perfect if you’re focused on completing goals. With voice activation and syncing accounts as standard, it’s incredibly useful for making sense of lists and completing objectives.

The aim of this app is simplicity and one of the main benefits is that it is constantly synced with all your other devices, saving yourself the trouble of updating them if you’re regularly switching between devices.
